My
art project topic is Islamic Art and Figurative Images, I’m going to
discuss what Islamic art is and the misconception of using figurative
images in Islam, when can you use figurative images and when you can’t.
And for that I’ll show a sample I drew of a figurative art image. I’ll
talk about how Muslims expressed themselves and their expressions by
calligraphy, how calligraphy plugged all parts of Islamic artworks, and
for that I have calligraphy samples painted by me or created with a
program. Also, Arabesque is the epitome of Islamic art, and Architecture
is one of the most important art forms in Islam, embodying the
strictness, simplicity and purity of its edicts, for that I designed two
mosque on a program to show how Islam mosques are decorated in
different styles (I have two renders, the others are not yet finished).
Finally I’ll be talking about the art of city planning, Muslims
perfected this art. They studied their space within the city and
designed the places for the buildings fulfilling their community’s
spiritual, physical and aesthetic needs. And handicraft Art is not to be
separated from handicraft in Islamic art, where artisan and artist are
one because each article produced requires artistic creativity as well
as professional skill.
